Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 Features Custom Upgrades

Capcom is adding customization to the next installment in retro side-scrolling action with Bionic Commando Rearmed 2. Once again, Nathan "Radd" Spencer returns as the daring elite soldier equipped with his famous bionic arm. Spencer will have to face his greatest challenge yet as the evil General Sabio is on the brink of launching a deadly missile strike. But Nathan will have some improved tricks up his (ahem) sleeve, in the form of custom upgrades for his bionic arm. This will add more variation and strategy to the otherwise successful arcade formula established in the first game. Just, stay away from the horrendous 3D remake.

In Rearmed 2, "Radd" Spencer will make use of his trademark tool - his bionic grappling hook - to grab, swing and leap through series of lush new environments. This won't be an easy mission as he'll be met by General Sabio's gun-toting soldiers, attack droids, and plenty of other threats along the way. Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 improves upon the visual achievements of its predecessor with the addition of more detailed character models, textures, and vibrant colors. New in-game mechanics such as customizable bionic arm components and upgrades will add an element of choice in between combat segments.
